I haven't seen it yet, so I can't tell you if it's any good, but I can explain the torrent thingy.

The group which releases V Gundam, Anime SkyScraper, had already released the series up to episode 40. They then started to release the episodes after 40 in Xvid, and they decided to re-encode the first 40 episodes in Xvid as well.
Episode 01-10 are re-releases of the first 10 episodes, and 41-51 are new releases.

Did Anime Sky Scrapper really fansubbed Victory Gundam or they only ripped the Hong Kong DVDs ? I seem to remember someone said they ripped the HK DVDs, but made corrections. If it's so, how good was the final product ?

They ripped the HK DVDs, but fixed and edited all the scripts so that the translations make sense (so it's nothing like those Macross 7 rips). There are still some problems with some of the sentences, but I'd say that this is about as good as, say, an average AJ script.

The video quality is only average though, but it's good enough considering the fact that the other groups subbing it are releasing it at a horrendously slow pace, though doing a much higher quality version.

MSG&Anime-Gundam is doing Victory... As far as I know that one's a fansub... The problem is that it's taking them 6 months or something to release one episode... (MSG is no fansubber but Anime-Gundam is--they were one of the three groups that did the high quality "Seed-Fansubs" version of Gundam Seed, and they're doing a HQ version of Turn A Gundam too, and that one's averaging an episode a month)

Once you get past the rather simple character and mecha design, the story is outstanding. It's grim and bloody. The death count amounst characters is quite high, and our hero (clocking in at 13, making him the youngest Gundam anime hero) has to take it all.
